Faster access to Ctrl+F12 filters?

[sdybvik]

What is the fastest way to select a custom filter?

I have to do this now with my limited knowledge:
Ctrl+F12 -> Tab -> <enter text to select an entry or use arrow keys> -> Enter

This should be enough
Ctrl+F12 -> <some kind of shortcut>

Can I set up TC to do this in some way?

Furthermore; is there a way to indicate that a filter is applied?

Prefix your predefined filters with numbers or letters, this way you will have a shortcut, after the Tab. Should be almost as convenient as pressing Alt-letter as shortcut. And there is AutoHotkey, it can help in all those kind of situations.

TC shows his right above the file panel following the active path you see the filter name, like:
c:\temp\>OnlyToday

Thanks. That helped a bit. If I get time for it, I might try exploring AutoHotKey.

I just overlooked the filter text in the active path. Now I just have to learn to look for it.
